Your Name (The only one I like)
Lay awake in the dead of night
With a pain in my chest
I don’t think I ever told you
That your name is the only one I like
The way it forms on my lips
The way it tosses, turns, and twists
The automatic smile
That accompanies it
Call Out
Call Out
I wrote you some words
In the dead of the night
But nothing came out
The way that I wanted
I drift off to sleep
The salt air carries me
And I find peace
In the moments in-between
Like I Do
Like I Do
Checking my phone
Approximately a million times of day
Took a trip across the country
Felt a million miles away
Telling my best friends
What I’m going through
And how I don’t think I ever wanted
Anything as much as you
Ruining conversations
Breathing out your name
I want to say the right thing
But you’re fogging up my brain
Asking my best friends
What the hell am I to do?
And how I’ve never wanted
Anyone like I do you
Always on my mind
Always on My Mind
Cycling through my notes app
And every word is about you
Except the takeaway order
And a pass code for a door
Listening to Acolyte
And listening to up all night
And you’re always on my mind,
You know you’re always on my mind.

As elegant
As Zelda
In her black party dress
As gorgeous
As Marilyn
Leaving me a wreck
I have a sneaking suspicion
That everybody who sees you
Falls in love with you
Because it happened to me
And I’ve never been wrong
About anything in my entire life
And it must be true
As pretty
As Winona
In Little Women
As bad
As a Bond girl
Heaven sent
I have a notion
That everyone falls in love with you
Because anything else
Feels wrong
And foolish
